Great Waters Scholarship Applications Now Available

Since its inception, the Great Waters Scholarship Program has contributed financial assistance to music students in the Lakes Region, helping them on their journey to connect their talents with the needs of the music world. In the summer of 2021, the program was re-named the Barbara and David Lobdell Scholarship Fund in honor of a couple who have served the organization in a variety of roles over the past twenty-five years. The scholarship program is funded in part through the generosity of donors including the Nancy P. Marriott Foundation.

Applications are now being accepted from New Hampshire residents enrolled in high schools located in Wolfeboro, Alton, Gilford, Meredith and Moultonborough who have an interest in pursuing a career in the support of the performing arts or music education.  Students from those same towns already enrolled as college undergraduates or graduate students may also apply. The 2022 application can be found on the Great Waters website https://greatwaters.org/community/. Scholarship recipients are announced in May and will be honored at one of the Great Waters concerts this summer.

Great Waters is a non-profit organization that has been bringing music to the Lakes Region since 1995. Great Waters celebrates the performing arts with programs that satisfy every palate. From Broadway to Comedy, to Rock and Roll, Classical and Folk, Great Waters brings something for everyone to enjoy. Its Concerts in the Clouds series is held on the grounds at the Castle in the Clouds in Moultonborough, and this coming season the Concerts in Town series located in Wolfeboro will be announced shortly.
